The Legend of Min Hong

Chapter 294: Exposed [2]



Chapter 294: Exposed [2]

"The Long Super Clan was here too!?"

The Sect Leader couldn't believe all he was hearing

It seemed like a great deal had happened and he didn't even know a tad bit about it

"Yeah, and they claimed to have seen the young master of the Long Clan too"

"Well, if Long Jun was here, then he must have been here protecting a very valuable member of their clan"

"So, even though it is a little bit far-fetched to see the hidden Dao Child of the Long Super Clan, it isn't impossible either, especially with Long Jun present" The Sect Leader deduced

"But, that's still not all"

"There's more?" The Sect Leader exclaimed

"Of course Apparently, Elder Long Jun has abruptly disappeared, and the guards have even tried searching for him, but they couldn't find him or the two magic beasts that came with that boy"

"Long Jun is truly moving funny, and if he is here and has been with that boy, then he really has a motive for it"

"He is the most fearsome foe anyone could have, with his acute ability to scheme and plan"

"Alert the royals and let them know everything about-"

"Yes, what is it!?" The Sect Leader was interrupted by his tag which hummed and blinked;

"The Imperial Patriarch is here!" A voice rang out from within the tag

"What!?"

The Sect Leader was stunned, things were happening too fast for his brain to comprehend;

"Why are so many things catching me off guard today!"

He was truly at crossroads, and his mind was so jumbled up that he didn't even know which matter to attend to first

"That's why I always advice you to dwell in the midst of your people, but you prefer to stay holed up in your courtyard and keep training that boy"

"He is already old enough to train by himself"

"Hand over any legacy you want to give him and let him go out and gain experience" Fifth advised

"The time is not yet ripe"

"Alright, let's go!" "Tell me everything else on our way"

"Or you could just transport us there directly" Fifth rolled his eyes;

"Hmph! Then do you expect me to face His Highness without a full report"

"Moreover, using this treasure has drained me a bit"

The Sect Leader replied as they tore through the sky towards the Sect

"Do you think His Highness had already found out about all this?" The Sect Leader asked;

"Or you mean to ask if His Highness was here because of the situation, right?"

"I don't think so He shouldn't have gotten the news so fast" Fifth eased the Sect Leader's anxious heart

"I truly hope so"

"So, what cogent information do we have about this punk's background?"

"We aren't even sure if he is using his real name, and those who could have given us some additional information are already dead"

"The representatives from both the Zi and Chi Super Clan and those soldiers from the East Wind Empire" Fifth replied

"The East Wind Empire is an enemy, and if this boy was sent as a spy to infiltrate the Empire, we might have already been crippled from within before we realize what is going on" The Sect Leader said seemingly deep in thought

"But that won't explain the dead soldiers"

"What if it was all a sham or shenanigan just to cover his tracks and true identity?" The Sect Leader said sceptically

"Well, that would have been a very expensive sham Losing a dozen Nascent Soul experts"

"In war, one can never overspend, after all, if the battle is lost, everything would either be looted or destroyed" The Sect Leader spoke;

"We really need to get the boy to spill some personal information" He added

"How do we plan on doing that?" Fifth asked

"That is something we will both have to figure out"

"What about the girl?"

"They are both the same the only thing we know about her was that, they have been together since our sources first set their eyes on them"

"But he is overprotective of her, and his words earlier and Fourth's injury were solid examples of that" Fifth voiced his opinion

"But they are both powerful, talented and packed with strange bloodlines and Daos" Fifth added

"But to top everything off, they are both still too young to have all these situations tied to them"

"Especially with the resources available to them" The Sect Leader spoke out of thought once again

"Fifth, powerful and talented figures don't just spring out of the thin air"

"Find out where they are from or give me some very tangible information"

"I feel like we are just trying to cling to a leaf for our dear lives"

"We need a branch, or even a damn trunk!"

"I need something, Fifth Find me something!"

"It is your area of expertise and you're the only one I can fully trust with such a task!"

The Sect Leader stopped mid-flight as he looked over to Fifth which made Fifth realize that he was very serious about the situation

"Alright, I will see what I can find out"

"But you will have to give me enough time"

"I don't want to come in too obviously or hard that he knows what my motives are before I even make my moves"

"I have studied him to a certain extent, he responds aggressively to authority or being controlled, so I will have to patiently play my cards right, otherwise, everything will be a total bust" Fifth explained

"Alright Just keep an eye on him"

"In fact, keep an eye on the entire group" The Sect Leader commanded;

"I will do as you have spoken, Sect Leader"

"Thanks a lot, Fifth Now let's go and see what His Highness have come here for"

The duo then increased their flight speed as they left a line in the sky

"How much longer do I have to wait!?"

"Haven't you told him I am here yet!?"

A deep voice boomed through the main hall located in the core court district of the Desert Sun Sect

His voice was so loud that the walls of this hall vibrated and several tiny debris fell off the rooftops making the gems of light hung on the roof and linked with chains clatter

"I'm so sorry your highness, our sect leader would be here pretty soon"

"He must simply have an urgent matter to attend to that he has left without telling me"

An old man who seemed to be the retainer of the Sect Leader trembled as he kept bowing his hunch back over and over again in trepidation

This person that he was speaking to was someone who could have his entire bloodline wiped out just because he was kept waiting for a single second

"Hmph!"

The man snorted and looked to the side

"Your Highness!"

A flustered Sect Leader burst into the hall and knelt on his both knees sliding across the hall [Like a jubilating footballer] before stopping before the man on his seat and finally, bowing till his head touched the floor

"Ruo Gang!" "You dare keep my grandpa waiting!?"

"How do you want to atone for your crimes!?"

The youth beside the man they call 'His Highness' or 'Imperial Patriarch' which was actually 'Chu Huang' yelled in fury at the Sect Leader, and though he might be only a tiny bit over twenty years of age, his status in comparison to the Sect Leader were miles apart, and as a result, the Sect leader had no choice but to bow and accept whatever punishment was about to be dished out to him

But just before the youth could speak again, Chu Huang waved his hands signaling the youth to pause before looking over to the bowing sect leader and asking;

"You had better give me a cogent explanation for this"

The moment he said that, Fifth couldn't help but feel a deep sense of Dj vu as he looked at the sect leader who was subtly trembling at the moment
